Mercedes-Benz CLE Gearbox Mount Replacement Parts

Yes, the CLE does have a gearbox mount — it is used to secure the transmission to the subframe or body, and all variants of the CLE use an automatic gearbox, so this is a relevant part across the range. The exact mount design may differ depending on whether the car is fitted with a four-cylinder or six-cylinder engine, and whether it is rear-wheel drive or 4MATIC all-wheel drive. Always confirm the specific mount required with the breaker against your registration number before ordering.

The most important detail is your engine code, which takes priority over the badge or trim name — for example, a CLE 200 and a CLE 300 may share a code or have a different one entirely, and the mount is engineered to the engine and transmission combination rather than the marketing name. You can find your engine code on your V5C or by running a VIN check. Your fuel type (petrol or diesel) and whether your car is rear-wheel drive or 4MATIC all-wheel drive are also relevant, so have those details ready when contacting a breaker.

The CLE was introduced in 2023 as an entirely new model line replacing the C-Class Coupe and Cabriolet, so at the time of writing it represents a single first-generation range with no facelift yet established. Because the model is still in early production, there is a real possibility that ancillary mounting components have been revised mid-run, which is something you should confirm with the breaker against your exact registration rather than assume all 2023-onwards examples are identical. Supplying your VIN alongside your engine code will give a breaker the best chance of matching the correct part.

Trim level does not affect gearbox mount fitment — the mount is a mechanical component determined by the engine, transmission type and drivetrain layout, not by whether the car is a standard, AMG Line, or AMG model. That said, a full Mercedes-AMG CLE 53 or CLE 63 variant uses a different engine and transmission to the mainstream CLE range, so those high-performance models should be treated separately and the engine code confirmed with the breaker. Cosmetic differences between trim levels such as badging or interior materials have no bearing on which mount is required.

It is unlikely that a mount from a rear-wheel-drive CLE will directly interchange with a 4MATIC variant, because the transmission units and their mounting arrangements differ between the two drivetrain layouts. You should tell the breaker specifically whether your car is rear-wheel drive or 4MATIC before they source a part, as fitting the wrong mount could cause problems with alignment and vibration. Never assume compatibility across drivetrain types without the breaker confirming it against both registrations.

Although the CLE shares some platform and powertrain DNA with the W206 C-Class and W213 E-Class, the CLE is a distinct model with its own body structure and mounting arrangements, so cross-model fitment cannot be assumed. Some breakers with technical knowledge may be able to identify shared part numbers between these models, but this must be confirmed by the breaker against your engine code and VIN rather than guessed. Do not assume a C-Class or E-Class mount will fit without explicit confirmation.
